Take Polar Bear Plunge Jan. 26 at Chippewa Lake

The Chippewa Lake Lions Club will hold its “3nd Annual, Polar Bear Fun Run/Walk and Jump” Jan. 26 throughout the village and winding up in Chippewa Lake.

The event combines a run/fun walk around the village starting at noon with a leap into the frigid waters of Chippewa Lake. Costumes, the first annual Corporate Challenge competition and a crowd of supportive — and curious — onlookers add to the festive nature of the event, which raises funds for Feeding Medina County, CrossPointe Community Church Meals Program. and the Chippewa Lake Lions Club.

Registration is $25 per participant. Sponsorships and donations are also encouraged. Last year’s event attracted nearly 180 runners/jumpers and raised more than $14,000. This year’s goal is $20,000.

Registration and more information are available online at chippewalakelions.com. Day-of-event registration begins at 10 a.m.
